Windows 10 Fall Creators and TOOLS for UR: 'Preparing to install'

After the update to Windows 10 Fall Creators (Version 1709), the TOOLS for UR software does not work correctly anymore. Opening the dspMixFx application or starting Cubase/Nuendo initializes a Windows Installer dialog stating 'Preparing to install'. The Windows Installer has to be closed using the Windows Task Manager ('end task').

Solution/Workaround

Uninstall TOOLS for UR and the Yamaha Steinberg USB Driver completely.(Right-click on Windows logo at the bottom left > Apps and Features)
